C, postofflca as mall matter of the sec ond class, In accordance with the Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1908. Little Joe Brown might not have "much show" against Hoke Smith, but hi is getting a lot of free advertising some of which "Little Joe" probably doesn't crave. While members of the Semite may be superstitious on account of the death within the past year of seven of thulr comrades, there Is no indication that a number of men not In the senate are. The Augusta Herald must be dry. It says: "According to the Anderson Mall the revenue officers and moon shiners of Greenville county under stand each other. The officers cap ture stills and get their names In the papers and the stilling goes right on." Couldn't our officers and blind-tlgera, asks The Herald, work this admirable game also? The Fayetteville pally Observer, one of the best.japers In the state, suffered from the storm the first of the week. The roofing had not been put on the building , before the storm struck it, and the paper was issued under the greatest difficulty Tuesday. The Ob server got out only a news edition, but Is now coming to Its readers In Its usual bright style. Our Fayetteville contemporary was struck by a fire sev eral weeks ago. We trust that ho more misfortunes will befall lt, and th.it the paper will hereafter have a pleas ant existence. In his message to congress yesterday afternoon President Roosevelt nrged that the tariff be given immediate at tention. He Is desirous that all neces sary data be prepared so that the next congress may act Intelligently. Pres ident Roosevplt may be sincere and probably Is In his advocacy of a re vision, but to most people that part of his message will look like a b'd for the support of those republicans and democrats who are tariff reformers at heart. We need hardly expect a re publican congress to Interfere with the tariff and, while the republicans will probably attempt to make capital out of the message, the fact remains that the democrat lo.rparty alone Is an op ponent of oppressive tariffs. That portion of the president's nres sage which treats of the natural re sources of the country, will appeal es pecially to publishers of newspapers. He urges that the tariff on wood pulp, which la used in the manufacture of whlto paper, bo removed In order that the American forests may not be' whol ly depleted. The newspaper publisher pays about twice as much foi paper today as he did several years ago, and this fact la not on account of the scar eify of,' jkdox but on account ofthe tar iff, which permits the paper trust to charge exorbitant prices. Other , ne cessities -are controlled by "the trusts In a, ltknmanner. and it .would seem that it Is indeed time to do something to Te)le,Vath purchaser. '' ' - 'I"' : FEEDING BREAD TO THE GUNS. , ;,!jrn. poumbta State thinks that '"nothing, could 'bi frorse'l'pofl'cy, noth ing could more certainly and ; deeply arouse discontent than the present -miidnils btfcs'flaflolbs for great navies arid vast - military establishments.

For vale bv all Grocer launching of fighting monsters costin? ten million dollars apiece and the live lihood of a thousand men to keep each one of them afloat for a twelve-month? What : must the 60,000 unemployed of Berlin a host equal to nearly two corps of the kaiser's army think of the government that continues to ex pend millions and millions every year nn Its army and navy, and all the while boasting that It Is at peace and amity with all the world? "All these and like questions must arise whenever vast expenditure Is made by our war-lords In the Interests of peace. Whenever a great armada is dispatched around the world it means the wasting of millions of the people's money; whenever the great guns are discharged, It means the waste of thousands of dollars and at a time when thousands of men can not find employment In large cities, when mills and factories In the north and cast are cutting down production, and when many persons are actually ill need of fOOd.;; :, In the New York World we find a little poem of P. F. McCarthy entitled 'To a Nine-Inch gun,' ' which aptly teaches part of a lesson we should learn. Here it Is: Whether your shell hits the target or not, Tour cost is five hundred dollars a shot. You thing of noise and (lame and .. - power. We feed vou a hundred barrels of flour Each time you roar. Your flames Is fed Wfth twenty thousand loaves of bread. Silence! : A million hungry men Seek bread to fill their mouths again. "One hundred barrels of flour con sumed in every voracious roar or the gun twenty thousand loaves of bread consumed in Its acrid smoke. And yet this is only a nine-Inch gun, a small gun as these toys now go. The big twelve-inch' minotaurs demand a far greater sacrifice. And how many loaves will soon be shot away over the peace ful waters of Magdalena Bay? Ho.t many millions of loaves have we fed to the vultures of war In a time of abso lute peace in the last few years In the last few months? "No rasoiiable. man would object to this expenditure of treasure and of btvad were there any necessity for it. But nnder present conditions the em battled powers are wasting with a spendthrift and a reckless hand the treasure and the opportunities of their people. The temper of the present day Is not such as to warrant such extrava gance on the part of war-lords and au tocrats; and they, read 111 the signs of the times If they fanry they can per sist in such an orgy of militarism." RACE TRACK GAMBLING. The determination to eradicate the forms of evil seriously detrimental to society Is at present manifesting It self outside of prohibition, strictly speaking. Close on the heels of the anti-race track betting legislation In Sew York comes the news that the house, urged by Representative Sims, of Tennessee, has passed a bill prohib iting race track gambling in the Dis trict of Columbia. , This is not to be wondered at, since evils should not be discriminated against. If the excessive use of alco hol works Injury to helpless women ar.d children, causing them sometimes to go ragged, cold and hungry, so also does frequently the race course and study ing the "dope sheet" result disastrous ly to the same class,. It Is said that WHAT IS POWER V " Nature supplies forte", Wind turns (he wind-milU The brook turn the water -wheel. Coal runs the engine end (nod runt the ' man. Some things contain little force; somethings much.1' - Onectubstance full of power is SCOTT'S EMULSION Nature put the power there. It ts a wonderful flesh-producer. This Is not only matter of nourishment but of new vigor and activity in the tissues. '." AA Draf (fatal BOcaad $1.00, during the agitation of theNe Tork bills letters were received from mam berg of almost every profess'on and business, setting forth the sad condi tions produced by gambling and urging the enactment of remedial legislation. I With the repression of the arch sn of gambling, we may look for speedy Im provement In the foc'al and economic life of a large bodr of people, especial ly In the more populous cities. Would Even G. W. Say "Nor From the Charlotte Observer: "Suppose," anxiously queries The Montgomery Advertiser, "that Mrs. Washington had asked George If he had ever IoVed any woman but her, would he have lied to her?" The Wash ington Herald, with Its usual headlong rashness In the presence of puzzles tough enough to make Solomon scratch the royal head thrice before essaying an answer we have no doubt, by the way, that the thousand-wived gentle man found himself up against this very same proposition on his own account, not once but many a timeasserts that George would. "There Is hardly any room for doubt," declares the reckless Herald, "as to Washington's answer In such a crisis. He could not tell a short and ugly word even though the cherry tiee episode may have been exploded j as proof of that. George did Just ex I actly and precisely what The Advertis er's inquisitor did in a like emergency. or does, or will do, as the case may be; he promptly, soothingly, gallantly, and sonorously answered, 'No.' And even the rankest pessimist must admit I that if In this he perjured himself, at least 'he perjured himself like a gen tleman.'" For our part, we arc ha'f inclined to believe that The Herald has stumbled, though blindly on the right conclusion and that In such an emer gency George would, could and should have overcome for once his well-known inability to tell a lie. This problem, however. Is so very difficult that J class in ethics should perhaps be form ed to discuss it. At any rate, we feel certain that George would have done and doubtless did the right thing whatever that is. . . -'' NOTICE IN BANKRUPTCY.
